But when it comes to genuin AR like Shakib, there is only 2 guy in the country who have the potential to be the genuin AR;Mahmudul Hassan or Alauddin Babu.

Mahmudul hassan is a very gd offie who have couple of variation in his arm including doosra. A very gd bat too but I personally think his batting may not be suitable for the shorter format as he takes a bit of time to get settle like Riyad.

A. Babu: aggesive bat. Useful 7/8 bTsman and within 2/3 yrs, he can be our third seamer.

good post, most allrounders are either a bowlking allrounder or batting allrounder which are actually better suited to the shorter formats and not so much the longer format (unless they are exceptional at one of the suits). i think naeem has the potential to be a solid allrounder especially for the shorter formats, thing with him is his bowling is suited to the shorter formats but his batting is suited to the longer formats, he needs to find his right balance for the different formats.

mahmudual hasan and alauddin babu are 2 great prospects, but atm babu gets a lot more talk than mahmudul. but mahmudul seems more genuine than babu in the sense that he could be a middle order bat and frontline bowler, babu is more of a lower order bat in the mold of klusner, russell, albie morkel etc and frontline bowler. both could be very useful for the national team down the line.
